I’d like to make it clear that I am in no way a scholar. And although the subject matter of this site leads many people to believe that I am British, I should tell you that I am American.   I’m just passionate about Pre-Raphaelite works and have spent a great deal of time reading, exploring and learning.  It is my journey.  There are so many facets about Pre-Raphaelite art that I find compelling — the subject matter, literary themes, the lives of the artists and their models, these are all areas that I want to pursue.   I’ve been blogging about Pre-Raphaelite art for several years now (since 2004 at my site LizzieSiddal.com) yet I feel that I am only just beginning to delve into my Pre-Raphaelite studies.   The more I read and learn, the more questions and possibilities arise.   On this site, I chronicle what has captivated me as I follow this strange quest of mine.  I am grateful that through this blog, I have made connections with others who follow the same pursuits.  If you have a Pre-Raphaelite related project, please send me an email at stephaniepina (at) lizziesiddal.com.  It’s important to me that this site is useful, so let me know if you have a link that you’d like to suggest.

Authors and Publishers:  I welcome the opportunity to review your book related to the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and/or artists and authors in their circle.  Please send me an email:  stephaniepina@lizziesiddal.com

    I am very inspired by pre raphaelite paintings for my photography. I often find myself wondering what it would be like to be one of those women in the paintings. This site is like a treasure trove. I just found it and i am excited!

    Hello, I am so pleased to see and read your web site: How marvellous.
    This year (1912) I have started to take photographs of models in a pseudo- Pre-Raphaelite style. It is such a shame I am here in the UK. I wish I could meet and photograph you. I am sure you would inspire and make me so happy to make beautiful images of yourself. Be happy and I look forward to seeing more.
    Peace and Love.
    Gerry
